  • Annual Parish Meeting Minutes Reports Pack 20210427 (Draft)
    1 ANNUAL PARISH MEETING 27 April 2021 Parish Council Chairman’s Report to the Annual Parish Meeting, April 2021 It’s hard to believe that our last Annual Parish Meeting, held in the Dixie Grammar School’s Sports Pavilion, was almost exactly 2 years ago and what a lot has happened since then. The coronavirus pandemic put paid to last year’s Annual Parish Meeting which was due to be held after the first lockdown which commenced in March 2020. After initial confusion as to whether, and how, local authorities could continue to meet in public, central Government introduced an Act of Parliament permitting council business meetings to be held remotely until 7 May 2021. Such business meetings include Parish Council Meetings which must be held in public for transparency reasons. We are pleased to have successfully waded through the volumes of guidance published, adapted to new technology, learnt all about Zoom, and continued to meet monthly despite the many difficulties encountered along the way. I would especially like to give my thanks to Cathy, our clerk, for her efficiency and dedication in ploughing through the plethora of advisory and guidance documents in respect of Covid which were coming from all levels of government as well as many other advisory bodies and local council associations. Managing risk assessments, producing notices for play areas and toilets at short notice, amending them as guidance changed and ensuring we as councillors were well briefed and able to meet as and when required. I would also like to thank Maureen Cook as Borough Councillor for her help and support and Ivan Ould our County Councillor who is retiring next month from a role he has held for many years.

  • Leicestershire
    LEICESTERSHIRE Leicestershire is medium-sized county in the centre of England. It is bordered to the north by Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, to the east by Lincolnshire and Rutland, to the south by Northamptonshire, and to the west by Warwickshire. The county is dominated by the Borough of Leicester, where weights and measures have been controlled by local officials since the middle ages [1]. The county appointed five inspectors in 1834, but the number soon dwindled to one, Samuel Hester, who remained in office until the police took over in 1857/8. The trade too was concentrated in Leicester. James Caparn, a brazier, was working at the Weights and Measures Office around 1820, and numerous local tradesmen were involved in the trade in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Some simply adjusted weights and repaired scales, but others, such as Marshall and Son, and Whitehead and Honey, became specialists.
